At both Lowell Elementary and Chase Elementary Schools, I spearheaded literacy improvements and professional development, significantly enhancing instructional quality. My decades of experience and expertise in instructional coaching and teacher mentoring, combined with a strategic approach to problem-solving and progress monitoring, led to notable advancements in student literacy outcomes and educator effectiveness. In addition, I have been an active participant and facilitator in many leadership teams and I've adopted protocols for data collection, tracking, and analysis.
